Project Tina Raises Nearly $1600 for Harris Family Graham Hackett and Amber Jones take $100 dollar first prize with comedy skit by Melanie Barker, staff writer
The talent flowed November 20, as students participated in a talent show to benefit Tina Harris, who recently lost Howard Harris, her husband of 29 years, to lung cancer. Harris, who has worked at Longwood for 13 years, has made an impression on students as they drift in and out of the Longwood community. Her brilliant smile and trademark, "Hey baby" greeting have embedded themselves in the lives of many students and staff, so it was not surprising to see such a vast turn-out to support Harris. "We are here to celebrate the gift of life and your service to this college," said Father Joseph Metzger, as he and Whitney Light began their stint as MCs for the evening. The talent show consisted of 11 acts ranging from a flute and violin duet to an energized step routine. Although the students participating in the show were excited about showcasing their talent, the main reason they were there was to support Harris and her family. Michael Young, a member of the Camerata singers, said, "We didn't look at this as a contest, we looked
at it as a way to raise money for a wonderful person who means a lot to everyone on this campus." Longwood's spirit and dance team began the show with an energized cadence. Followed by the spirit and dance team were Scott Knight and Nayan Bhula, who performed an impassioned rendition of "Come on into My Kitchen." Leaning into the microphone, Knight said, "Tina, this one's for you baby." Possibly the last time the two would play together, Knight and Bhula gave an ardent performance that would be remembered by fans and Harris. Jammie N. Jackson performed Langston Hughes' "I Dream a World," and sang "Dream the Impossible Dream," providing an uplifting message for the evening. For act four, Raissa Czemerynski and Lisa Dimino performed a duet— Czemerynski playing the violin and Dimino on the flute. Savannah Hodge, Anne Lowry, and Rob Wilson

"We didn't look at this as a contest, we looked at it as a way to raise money for a wonderful person who means a lot to everyone on this campus." - Michael Young Noticing the lack of comedy in the evening's show, Graham Hackett and Amber Jones delivered an outstanding comical sketch. Hackett portrayed the role of the newly married groom, while Jones played the heartbroken bridesmaid caught in a nefarious love affair with the groom. Hackett and Jones made acting look easy as they caught cues and rolled out line after witty line like it was second nature. After intermission, the audience returned to their seats to hear the mellow acoustic melodies of Korey Hubbard. Playing the guitar, Hubbard sang "No Woman, No

President Cormier addresses student body of Longwood College concerning fire-safety in the dormitories To: Michael P.H. Young, Editor, The Rotunda From: Dr. Patricia Cornier Over the recent Thanksgiving break, the Longwood administrative team was working to develop strategies to address fire-safety concerns that were cited in regional newspapers. As you well know, Longwood has long been concerned about safety and we now want to make certain the we reach the highest standards of fire safety in our residence halls. We have sent letters to the families of all of our students and prospective students at their home addresses. However, I would like to make certain that our current students receive this important information in the most expeditious fashion possible. Could you please publish the attached letter to students in the next issue of The Rotunda? Please know that I appreciate your help and assistance in this aimportant matter. TO: All Longwood Students FROM: President Patricia P. Cormier Over the Thanksgiving holiday you may have seen the articles in the Richmond Times-Dispatch or other news media concerning fire safety in the high rise dormitories of our public colleges and universities in Virginia. I want you to know that I regard the health and safety of students as a primary responsibility. We have mailed letters to parents of current students and to prospective students addressing fire safety issues. Since you are most directly affected, I wanted you to know in the most timely fashion possible what we are doing now and what we plan to do in the immediate future. I hop that you will take a few minutes to read through this letter and, most importantly, to share your ideas for improving campus safety with me or other members of the college staff. Longwood College has been conscientious in regard to fire safety within our residence halls. All rooms and hallways have smoke detectors and there are fire extinguishers in all hallways. Fire drills are held on a regular basis: fire equipment is inspected reagularly; and individual dormitory rooms are subject to regular fire safety inspections. The two dormitories cited in the articles, Curry and Frazer, were built to meet existing fire codes in effect in the early 1970's. Although building codes have changed, these dormitories do meet current fire inspection safety standards. We are also developing an immediate plan of action to enhance our commitment to student safety. I recently appointed a special task force to address the issue of fire safety at Longwood. Although the primary focus of the task force will be on fire safety, the group will also address any issue which may affect the welfare of our students. Here are some things we are doing right away: * a preliminary report from the task force has recommended that sprinklers be installed in our high-rise dormitories, Curry and Frazer. We are working closely with state officials to implement installation as soon as possible. Our target date for completion is next summer; * all of our buildings on campus are being inspected to promote the safety of our students; any buildings which do not meet official and college requirements will be brought up to the highest safety standards possible; * our student affairs staff is re-emphasizing our existing educational programs to ensure that every student knows what to do in case of a fire. Enforcement of current fire safety regulations will be even more stringent so that the welfare of the majority is not jeopardized by the actions of a few careless students, employees, or guests; As an educator, as a parent, and as a member of the Longwood family, I believe that the health, safety, and well-being of our students is of the utmost importance. Again, please let me know if you have any ideas for improving campus safety. Together we can make our safe enviroment even safer.
A Message from CHI To each and every member of the Longwood College Community, CHI 1997 would like to commend you for your positive attitude and for your dedication to maintaining the blue and white spirit this semester. We realize that there hai>e been many difficult and saddening moments this year. Our campus has witnessed many losses and we are still recovering from the hurt. Each of you are so important to this campus, and one of you leai<es us, it is truly hard to go on. What is left is an empty space in the heart of the Longwood community. CHI would like to recognize and commend those individuals who kept the blue and white spirit intact during this fall's Lip Sync contest. There was the presence of inappropriate behavior, but various groups and organizations pulled through together with a positive attitude. CHI would also like to commend the campus community for the strengt it gained when many members pulled together to show sympathy for the loss of, tenth floor Curry's hall member, Linsay Tinsman. We commend the event "Project Tina", and the memorial service and Cancer walk for both Amy York and for the Tina Harris family. It is truly an honor to be among such caring, passionate people. For all those who wrked hard to keep others in good SPIRITS there is much admiration. With Longwood love, CHI 1997

Approval of the Agenda: A motion was made to approve the agenda. It was seconded and passes. A motion was made to add Phyllis Mable, Mr. Bratcher and RHA under Special Orders of the Day. It was seconded and passed. Approval of the Minutes: A motion was made to approve the minutes from the November 12 meeting. The motion was seconded and passed. Special Orders of the Day: 1. Phyllis Mable approached the senate to let us know about an article on fire safety in high rise dorms that will be printed soon in the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Our dorms met fire safety codes before but things have changed a little bit. We had two fires in the past (in 1987 and 1991) and had a consultant come to check out the safety of the buidings. The buildings are made with concrete that will contain the fire to one room. The school followed the recommendations made by the consultant and improved fire safety with fire detectors, extinguishers, safety checks, etc. They are forming a task force to check again with a consultant and report back to the President by December 10. Phyllis is asking for four students to be on the committee (Denise James, Jocelyn Weidner, Leeza Beazlie, and Michele Keeling). 2. Mr. Bratcher passed around the policy on technological resources and how we use them. He explained problems they've had in the past and says that he has a responsibility to make sure funds are used for what they are intended for. He has come up with a policy to establish ownership of resources, responsibility of resources, protection of the college, and referenceds for rights and legal issues. The College has a right to take action on complaints becuase computer technology is a privelege, not a right. 3. RHA wanted to thank the senate for funding their Mississippi conference. As a result of the trip, they are now a strong organization and have learned alot. The trip has given the group motivation for upcoming activities. 4. Tosh Marks came before the senate (by unanimous consent) to ask for $8,890 for 22 students to go to a conference in Miami, Florida. On their last conference, 12 Longwood students auditioned for jobs; 8 of them were chosen to move on to the next stage in Miami. Senator James moved to allocate $8,890. It was seconded. Senator Toombs moved to table it until next week. It was seconded and passed. see MINUTES, page 6
News Longwood Students Give Time and Effort in Participating in "Respite Camp" in Bedford Thirty-three students and five faculty from four program areas participated in a "Respite Camp" for persons with mental retardation recently. The participants, from Social Work, Special Education, Speech/Language Pathology and Audiology, and Therapeutic Recreation, assisted with the camp, held November 8-10 at Camp Virginia Jaycee near Bedford. "This was the first time that Longwood has participated in the camp," said Dr. Susan Lynch, assistant professor of Therapeutic Recreation. "This will be an annual event, involving all four program areas." The Camp provided recreational programming, social interaction, and special events "through a camp experience" for 42 persons with mental retardation, ranging in age from 11 to 70, from group homes and private homes across the state, Dr. Lynch said. "Longwood T.R. students coordinated and implemented the recreation programming for the entire camp, for the entire weekend," she said. "This programming consisted of nature activities, arts and crafts, music, horseback riding, and two special ev ents: adance and a talent show." Othe faculty who participated were Dr. Edna AllenBiedsoe (Social Work), Rita Purcell-Robertson and Terri Ramsey (Speech/Language Pathology) and Dr. Ruth Meese (Special Education). They and the students reported learning not only from the campers, but also from each other. "We learned about each other's (academic) disciplines, and we also got to know each
other as friends," Mrs. Ramsey said. "And we learned as appreciation for parents and caregivers; we saw that it takes a tremendous amount of energy, patience and a sense of humor." Said Dr. Meese, "There is a big difference in working with individuals with disabilities and living with them for 48 hours. You see the person as a whole being." "The students had an opportunity to learn things about themselves, and to see whether or not a person could work with these individuals," Dr. Lynch said. "Students in each program area had an opportunity to work on specific interventions familiar to that academic area. Special Education and Therapeutic Rec. utilized behavior management techniques, Speech/Language Pathology utilized communicative strategies, and Social Work truly understood that the family is a key component in influencing the individual positively." Students who participated were, from Special Education; Shannon Lavinus, Jill Linkous, Lindsay Martin, Sallie Payne, Heidi Settle, and Courtney Tucker; from Social Work; William Banks, Gina Fuller, Michelle Jones, Estela Knott, and Jeanne Motley; from Therapuetic Rec; S11 arm mi a Carter, Jaimie Cart wright, Wayne Cravey, Karen Davis, Raissa Czemerynski, Patricia Jackson, Samantha Jones, Tonya Jones, Whitney Light, and Anne Marie Wilson; and from Speech/Language Pathology; Susan Carson, Sharon Fox, Grace Garrison, Michelle Goldsmith, Heather Rumsey, Christina Seabold, Karen Sims, Sarah Sitton, Emily Triplett, Tracy Watts and Stephanie Wheeler.

Beyond the Iron Gates MOSCOW Last Wednesday, a Russian soldier opened fire on his comrades killing two and wounding three in the second such incident this week. Investigators said the motive was not clear. Military officials have said recent violence is a result of the armed forces' need to admit people with criminal records and mental problems because of widespread draft-dodging. By USA Today
MANILA, Philippines Police discovered a pipe bomb, hand grenades and a timing device in two of the nation's most sensitive places: Manila airport and the chief site for the annual APEC summit. News of the discoveries overshadowed advanced meetings of the annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. At one session, the United States failed to win full endorsement for a proposal to abolish tariffs on computers and other information technology
products. By USA Today The recent gangland-style slaying of a prominent U.S. businessman in Moscow has alarmed many in the city's foreign business community, but apparently few so far have decided to pack up and leave. "Of the more than 700 American firms active in Russia, fewer than the fingers on one hand have told me they are leaving because they can't handle the
problems," says Thomas Pickering, who has just left Moscow as U.S. ambassador to Russia. Ohers say the slaying has deeply upset U.S. business people in Russia. By USA Today EAu CLAIRE, Wisconsin - A $900,000 out-of-court settlement was agreed on Wednesday in a lawsuit claiming school officials violated a gay student's rights by not protectin him from years
of harassment by other students. Jamie Nabozny said the abuse by other students renged from name-calling to being shoved and beaten in the stomach so badly that he later required surgery. He said the harassment occurred from the time he entered Ashland Middle School in 1988 until he dropped out of school in 1993, later earning an equivalency diploma. By USA Today Compiled by Jon Frost

Where were you on the night bf November 15? If you weren't at lafterefwtheGist/Tanglefootshow, hen I'm feeling sony for you. Haying their last show of the Semester, Gist rocked on the small barters stage as they played songs ike, "Waiting for What" and "Gas #4," a song written by bassist for Moentmann (Longwood's ladies and gentlemen). "Can you hear all the nstruments? Everything cool?' ked frontman Nayan Bhula in between songs, as the blue and gold stage lights cast shadows of the riicrophone on his Scooby-Doo tkshirt After an affirmative answer, Bhuladragged his fingers up the neck of his red guitar and began the next •ong as the audience tapped their feet |on the floor, marking time like a
metronome with drummer Fred Burton. Gist delivers, but guess what! You have to wait until next semester tocatch them again. Makesureyou're there next time! Packed with wailing feedback, distortion, andBhula'scharged guitar playingand singing, Gist gaveahighperformance show, opening the evening's entertainment with an explosive bang. Tanglefoot! Remember that name. Following Gist's exceptional precedent. Tanglefoot—who were christened one of the best unsigned bands by Musician Magazine—took to the stage, drawing the crowd to the dance floor. Strutting underneath the discoboli to that distinctive Tangleftxtf sound, it was obvious that the privileged listeners liked what they
